Home and vehicle owners in Calgary assess hail damage after storm

WATCH: A Calgary auto body shop was busy Friday, dealing with more than 70 hail damage inspections before the noon hour. Joel Senick details the extent of the damage and explains why it's not always obvious to the eye.

A Calgary auto body shop is working “non-stop” to deal with hail claims stemming from a severe thunderstorm on Thursday.

Kevin Shangai, the manager of Horton Auto Body & Paint, said the shop had seen between 75 and 80 vehicles damaged by hail before noon on Friday. It has been a few years since a storm lead to his crew handling this sort of workload, he said.

“[The damage] will range anywhere between $1,200 all the way up to $10,000,” Shangi said.
